quick ? about rad. fan
 
Are the fans on a wrs/sti/2.5 considered "pusher" or "puller" type fans. I'm gonna guess they pull the air through the radiator but what the hell do I know?

Yeah, they pull the air thru the rad from behind.

Unless they're really close to the headers like mine, in which case, they pull the air thru the rad from behind, while melting into liquid plastic that drips down over the sub frame. :lol:

My AC fan hits my wastegate and everytime it kicks on bits and pieces go flying all over the underside of my hood and whatnot. :P
